Welcome to the podcast of the Archaeo Book Club, an online community for lovers of archaeology and books! The book club was started back in 2022 as a way to explore how archaeology is depicted in fiction and popular non-fiction. Every month, we pick a different archaeology-related theme, and our book club members vote on a book to read for that theme. Each “field notes” episode, book club admins Tilly, Judith, and Ash discuss the latest theme and talk about its archaeological background, and make their own suggestions for further reading in each “book worms” episode. This podcast is for anyone who loves to explore the past, and loves to read!

Join Tilly, Judith, and Ash in Episode 3 as they set sail into the July reading theme: Vikings!
In this “field notes” episode, they share their own experiences with Viking archaeology, history, and literature, swapping favourite stories and first impressions. They discuss why Vikings remain such a popular and important topic, how research has changed over time, and why this theme continues to capture imaginations across disciplines.
Next episode, they’ll dive into the book club’s pick, Valkyrie by Jóhanna Katrín Friðriksdóttir, along with personal reading recommendations, so stay tuned!
